These lady’s sports sandals help to combat the effects of plantar fasciitis with a built-in, podiatrist-designed stabilizing orthotic footbed that realigns feet to a neutral position. The deep heel cups are molded into the sandals’ comfortably soft, shock-absorbing, triple-density EVA footbeds, providing cushioning for the heel and forefoot while aligning the feet into a natural position for those who over-pronate—when the heel bone angles inward—a determining factor in the development of plantar fasciitis. A medical study conducted by a panel of physicians confirmed that participants who wore the sandals experienced a decrease in pronation, improving their gait mechanics. The resilient Vibram outsoles are made from rubber molded with a slip-resistant pattern that grips most surfaces. The durable, flexible leather uppers have soft, padded jersey liners and bungee strap overlay; with soft nylon webbing toe post. Chocolate. Women’s whole sizes 5-11. For half sizes, order the next size down. Medium to wide width. (6 oz.)

I was suffering from plantar fasciitis and it seemed to be getting worse and worse due to unsupportive footwear. Living at the beach, it was nearly impossible to wear a supportive sneaker everywhere I went. This sandal turned out to be a life saver. I could wear my sneakers when it was appropriate and slide this sandal on in between without ever feeling like I didn't have enough support. Now I wear my sandals more than my sneakers and my pf is almost totally resolved. I'm picking up another pair for this summer even though my old ones are still in great shape after 2 years. The New sandals feel a little tight in the strap but I know from experience that they loosen up within a week or two but not so much that they fall off. I'm so happy with my purchase and love this sandal!

I was disappointed in that the two straps caused much discomfort on the big toe joint. I have had to return them.

Arch support helps to take pressure off painful heel when standing and walking. Wearing too long initially caused hip pain, must get used to change in body alignment gradually. Would be helpful if they were a bit softer.
